Net Optics 10 GigaBit SR to LR Tap simplifies connecting LR fiber monitoring and security devices to SR fiber network links. Convert SR to LR and tap into the link with one device, reducing cost and complexity at the same time.
10 GigaBit SR to LR Taps are optimized, high-performance devices that support passive monitoring of 10 GigaBit links at speeds of 10 Gbps.

Transparent Access

10 GigaBit SR to LR Taps establish permanent passive access ports without introducing a point of failure or disturbing other network connections. Net Optics unique dust cap is tethered to the connector so it is always right where you need it. These passive Taps deliver full-duplex monitoring with zero impact on network traffic around the clock.

Security and Visibility

Without an IP address, monitoring devices are isolated from the network, dramatically reducing their exposure to attacks. However, the monitoring device connected to the Tap still sees all full-duplex traffic as if it were in-line, including Layer 1 and Layer 2 errors.

Simply Plug It In

Full-duplex monitoring is a snap with supplied cables. All network and monitoring cables necessary for plug-and-play deployment are included with the Tap.

Reliability

For extra uptime protection, Net Optics 10 GigaBit SR to LR Taps offer redundant power connections. Should the primary power source fail, the Tap automatically switches to the backup power source. Power LEDs on the front of the Tap indicate the current power source – even if power is lost and reapplied, there is always zero delay to network traffic.
